Jerry McCrea/The Star-LedgerCarlo's Bakery, the home of TLC's "Cake Boss," will celebrate its 100th anniversary in Hoboken starting June 16. Carlo's City Hall Bake Shop, the home of TLC's hit reality show "Cake Boss," will celebrate 100 years in Hoboken with a block party, a cupcake giveway and more, starting June 16.

The bakery opened in 1910, and in 1964, Buddy Valastro Jr.'s father bought the Washington Street fixture. (The corner of Washington and Newark streets will be named "Carlo's Bakery Way" to honor the centennial.) “My father had big dreams for this shop, and our 100th year, the success of "Cake Boss," and the response from the community is beyond all of our wildest imaginations," Valastro says. "Our family hopes to have a great time with all the families that come visit.”

TLC is sponsoring Hoboken's "Movies Under the Stars" at Pier A Park on June 16 at 9 p.m. The feature of course will be new episodes of "Cake Boss," and Valastro will make an appearance. On June 18, TLC and Carlo's Bakery will hand out at least a thousand "commuter cupcakes" at the PATH station. And on June 19 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., there will be a block party in the five blocks around the bakery, featuring dessert decorating stations, a dunk tank (try to douse Buddy himself), and more events.
